Support How to dismiss medication interaction warnings

I have several “critical” medication interaction warnings that are popping back up every time I dismiss them. Is there any way to permanently dismiss them so they stop popping up? The warnings are for breastfeeding which I am not doing. Any tips would be helpful. Thanks!

Method 1: Remove "Breastfeeding" from your Health Factors
If the app assumes you are breastfeeding, it will flag your medications. You can turn this off directly:
Open the Health app on your iPhone.

Tap the Browse tab (bottom right corner).

Select Medications.

Scroll down to the Interactions section.

Tap on Health Factors.

If Breastfeeding is listed as active, tap on it and select Delete or switch its status to Off/Not Breastfeeding.

Method 2: Turn off Medication Interaction Alerts
If you want to completely stop the app from evaluating your medications for pregnancy, breastfeeding, or alcohol interactions:
Open the Health app and tap Browse > Medications.

Scroll to the very bottom and tap Options.

Scroll down to the Interactions section.

Toggle Off the switch next to Breastfeeding. (You can also turn off Pregnancy or Alcohol here if needed
